Trading My Sorrows
Chorus I'm trading my sorrows I'm trading my shame I'm laying them down For the joy of the Lord I'm trading my sickness
I'm trading my pain I'm laying them down For the joy of the Lord
Vamp Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord
Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord amen
Verse I am pressed but not crushed Persecuted not abandoned
Struck down but not destroyed I am blessed beyond the curse
For His promise will endure That His joy's gonna be my strength
Though the sorrow may last for the night His joy comes with the morning

Our Great God
Chorus 1 Hallelujah glory be to our great God Hallelujah glory be to our great God
Verse 1 Eternal God unchanging mysterious and
unknown Your boundless love
Unfailing grace and mercy shown Bright seraphim in ceaseless flight
Around Your glorious throne They raise their voices day and night
In praise to You alone
Verse 2 Lord we are weak and frail
Helpless in the storm Surround us with Your angels
Hold us in Your arms Our cold and ruthless enemy
His pleasure is our harm Rise up O Lord and he will flee
Before our sov'reign God
Verse 3 Let ev'ry creature in the sea
And ev'ry flying bird Let ev'ry mountain
Ev'ry field and valley of the earth Let all the moons and all the stars
In all the universe Sing praises to the living God Who rules them by His Word

Here I Am To Worship
Verse 1 Light of the world
You stepped down into darkness Opened my eyes let me see
Beauty that made This heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You
Chorus So here I am to worship Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God And You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy Altogether wonderful to me
Verse 2 King of all days
Oh so highly exalted Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came To the earth You created
All for love's sake became poor
Bridge And I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross And I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross

Mighty To Save
Verse 1 Ev’ryone needs compassion
Love that's never failing Let mercy fall on me
Ev’ryone needs forgiveness The kindness of a Saviour
The hope of nations
Chorus Saviour He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save He is mighty to save
Forever Author of salvation He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
Verse 2 So take me as You find me
All my fears and failures Fill my life again
I give my life to follow Ev’rything I believe in
Now I surrender
Bridge Shine your light and let the whole world see
We're singing For the glory of the risen King
Jesus Shine your light and let the whole world see
We're singing For the glory of the risen King
